NOTE: Whenever the chirps are by - passed, the 4 chirp intrusion indicator and 3 chirp
defective zone indicator will always operate. Since these are important warnings to
you that something has happened, they cannot be eliminated.
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION
The Lock or Unlock button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a panic switch for
use in emergency situations. To use remote panic,
1. Press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the keychain transmitter for 3 or more
seconds. The alarm will immediately sound.
2. To stop the alarm, press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the transmitter again for
3 seconds. If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically stop after 30 seconds.
Also if any transmitter button other than the Lock or Unlock button is pressed and
released, the Panic mode will be turned off immediately. The normal function of this
transmitter button will be suspended during the Panic sounding period.
3. During the panic mode, the Lock and Unlock buttons can be used to lock and unlock the
doors, (if the option is installed), however once the unlock/disarm button is pressed, the
vehicle's starter inhibit device, (where installed) will be disabled allowing the vehicle to
start.
NOTE: While in the Panic mode, pressing and releasing the Lock or Unlock buttons will, if
the option is installed, lock and unlock the doors respectively. While in the panic
mode, anytime the Unlock button is pressed, the panic feature will continue for the
allotted 30 seconds, however, the security system will be disarmed allowing the
vehicle to start.
R.F. SHOCK SENSOR MODE SELECTION
The way in which your alarm system reacts to threatening vibrations, created by attempts to
enter the vehicle by breaking a window, is adjustable by the transmitter immediately after
arming. There are 4 modes of operation that can be selected by the operator.
1: Normal Operation (default mode)
In this mode, any strong vibrations will cause the siren to sound (full detect) for 30 seconds.
Any lesser vibration will cause the siren to emit about 6 short warn away chirps, (pre-detect).
2: Stage 1 (Omit pre-detect)
In this mode, the warn away chirps created by the lesser vibration will be deleted. If strong
vibration occurs, the siren will sound.
3: Stage 2 (Omit pre & full detect)
In this mode, both the pre-detect stage, and the full trigger stage of the sensor are defeated.
The unit will not react to vibration of any magnitude.
4: Stage 3 (City Mode)
In this mode, the pre-detect chirps will change from 6 pre-warning tones to a full 10 seconds
of warning chirps.
The full detect trigger duration will be reduced from 30 second to 15 second.
NOTE: Setting the stage of the shock sensor will be effective for one arming cycle only.
Once the system has been disarmed, the very next arming cycle will cause the sensor to
default to the normal operation stage.
To change or adjust the shock sensor:
1) Press and release the ARM button of you keychain transmitter.
a) Within 2 seconds of arming, press and release the ARM button 1 time, to defeat the
pre-detect stage of the shock sensor. (The lights will flash and the siren will chirp 1 time)
